Before this time,men are in the forehead of fashion,but until this time,the queen is in charge,women stated to look for the fashion.
--way to be similar to a girl from Victorian period
- remember, their clothing covered their WHOLE body. Even the glimpse of an ankle is a stereotype "no-no.
- "Wear Cloaks,not coats! Instead of coats, women wore shawls or cloaks when cold.
- Know the Length of skirts. As young as 4 years old girls must cover their knee and sixteen year old girls must cover their ankles. If you are in that age range, you have free to customize your skirts within that range.
- Know the exceptions. One exception to full body coverings. Ball gowns or formal attire. You may show your shoulders and/or breast line.
- Consider Bustles and Corsets. Corsets can have the power to crush your internal organs and lower sets of ribs, so as far a recommending them, most would not. Bustles were designed to hold the skirt up and a very modernized and simple way to make one is to tie a pillow with a belt under your skirt.
- Wear Gloves are a total Victorian giveaway. Especially with lace, these gloves are a great way to show you love Victorian times. It really doesn't matter if its white or black, but black is the most Victorian-looking.
- Wear brooches. Brooches are very Victorian. While people from Victorian time mostly wore ones containing plain silver or pearls, emerald is accepted, too.
- Add a stylish hat. Hats make the look. If you find a very nice looking antique hat, buy it. You can wear it! It makes the look.
- Stay way from bright colors.
- Focus on pastels and dark colors.
